”I wish Larry the very best of luck in his continuing efforts to prove that he is Dannielynn’s biological father,” Opri said. She did not indicate why she was leaving, but internet reports indicate that Birkhead fired her.

Attorney Howard K. Stern, who was living with Smith at the time of her death last month, is listed on the birth certificate as 6-month-old Dannielynn’s father. He and the girl are living in the Bahamas.

Birkhead, Smith’s former boyfriend, claims he is really the father, and has been demanding publicly that Stern come to California to take a paternity test to resolve the matter.

Smith, 39, died of unknown causes Feb. 8 after collapsing at a Florida hotel.
